  • DResolve Cut Page giving multiple camera angles by default…

    Posted by Pete Flernt on March 18, 2025 at 1:45 pm

    Concerning the Cut page… I got this bunch of files recorded some time ago and while trying to derush using the edit page (with Speed Editor, if it can change anything to my issue), if I select the Source view, it seems Resolve doesn’t give me any choice but to have multicam function enabled with all my clips dispersed on several different cam angles even if everything was shot using the same camera at very different times.

    I’m figuring it’s auto-syncing using something like the timecode and when 2 TCs match on different clips (even if recorder 2 days apart), Resolve concludes it’s ”2 cameras”. I tried re-syncing using the Audio but no success; still got like 7 angles.

    And there is no ”ONE camera only” function anywhere.

    The very annoying behavior is that while I’m going through my clips in Source view, it jumps from one clip to another that was shot at a very different time so I can’t Append that clip on the timeline without jumping in the ”real time of life” it was shot (all my clips are organised with name / ascending time of shooting in Media Pool).

    I’d just like to un-do that multicam behavior and go through my clips in the order they are sitting in the Media Pool without jumping from one clip to another that’s 54 clips further simply because Resolve decided it was another ”angle”.

    I hope I’m clear, I’s so exhausted of looking for settings/solutions/google/etc for like 8 hours now… good lord. Sorry about the rant part, and a MILLION thanks in advance if you got the solution !

    Hey Pete,

    Sorry, for starters, I have not edited multi-cam inside Davinci. And, the one time I wanted to sync clips by audio, it did not want to play ball at all (camera-mic on track 3, did not want to sync to 3 x mono wav files…).

    However, even though it sounds like you’ve burned out on options, have you visited Larry Jordan?

    If not, this might be of help + the comments section is of interest too.

    Will keep looking for you.

    Thanks a lot Mads, I’ll sure try this solution. Already subscribed to so many Youtube chanels, printed parts of the manual, I’m sure you figure the drill … 😁

    It’s so weird there’s no easy way to simply tell Resolve ”hey, it’s just ONE camera, not seven!”. Just a check box or something similar.

    Thanks again !
